van doesburg founded the de stijl art movement with piet modrian which went for the complete abstraction of reality
both were well trained impressionist and realist artists whose work became more and abstracted over time, until all that was left was geometric shape and minimum colors (black and white or primary only)

but i think modrian was right bc i think of de stijl and mondrian’s paintings to be be this crazy foreshadowing of pixels and lack of dimension in digital images
